A STARTLING DISCOVERY.

The New 'Orleans Della says that it is suggested that “there is some connection between Cortipas’ invasion of Texas and Brown’s invasion of Virginia; and that one of |he objects of the former is to produce a state of alarm and insecurity along the Texan’frontier, which would facilitate the running off' of slave into Northern Mexico.” Wfe might add to the suggestion of the eejitorjof the Della, that, perhaps, it was the intention of Old Brown aod Cortinas to invade Virginia and Tixas in concert, and form a junction of the iinvading forces in the heart of oie slaves States, emancipating the slaves in their course,! and ■‘sending the fire and in all directions. It is awful to think of. j A monumerjt should .be erected to the Brain that conceived the mighty idea of an understanding between Old Ossawotomie an 4 the Tejtin rubber. The i&fta/e JoiuyiaJ., in alluding to this subject, ssuys; suppose that the South will charge every evil that may (befall itiient for the next itwejity years to Old Brown. If the Mississippi river makes (crevasses in the levee and (destroys a sugar Crop, it will be the work of of a Black Republican conspiracy among the snow peaks at the head waters of the souri. If the cotton crop fails, it will be the effect of a Black Republican disti ibutioß of cut-fworms, brougit down in shoe-pegs and carried on to the plantations by peddlers at night.”
